Proposed molecular mechanism for the induction of DCM in αMHC-cre mice. The decrease in p38 activity enhanced JNK, resulting in an upregulation of the p53/Bax causing myocyte death. The change in p38 activity due to cre-induced DNA damage and external signaling initiated a cascade that eventually resulted in DCM.
